I finally got out for a couple hours in the evening today.The wind was blowing something terrible today so i wasn't sure I was going to go.Sherry left for work and i tied a few jigs before deciding it was time to head out.I got to the lake and the white caps were rolling on the lake.I went back into a cove to get out of the wind,still breezy but not too bad.I was hoping to get into some crappies but no such luck.I tried a small twister and they didn't like that so i went to a small guinea jig with a single maggot.I moved further back into the cove and found a few gills.Not much size though,the first was decent and they got smaller.The peepers were driving me nuts they were so loud.There were a couple herons and an osprey flying around,that was pretty cool.My final count for the evening was 17.Here's a pic of the Red Ear i caught.
They are my favorites,love the colors and I think the fight harder.
